Very sad :( For once I'll have to agree with Ron. I said the same thing. Why expose them to the very thing that caused the problem. I know you are susposed to get back on that horse when you fall off, but...

Well, then I guess someone needs to stab this politician with a pen, because this confirms that "the pen is mightier than the sword" even when wielded by a desperate, attention hungry whore like Ron Paul.

there seems to big a huge bunch of these jerkoffs in the US, both Christian pacifists and the anti-war liberal hippie crowd. They can't seem to seperate the war from the soldier.

3:47 PM

Not separating the war from the soldier is what PTSD is. It's easy to sit in your comfy chair and type away at how liberal weenies and Christian pacifists are wrong. Living in a war zone will change all that. You should try it for a few years and then get back to us... if you survive.

4:16...I guess you missed it but I was siding with the soldiers, and not advocating for war by doing so. They (Pacifists and hippies) hate war and they hate the soldiers. I didn't agree with the last several wars, but that is far different than placing hatred and blame on the soldiers sent to fight.

No, I have never been in war zone, but I would imagine if I had fought in Iraq or Afganistan I would have came home pretty upset at our government for fighting political wars with no exit strategy, while sending military recruiters into high schools to search out vulnerable 17-18 yo's to fight.

My sympathy lies there, with the soldier. I agree if you enlist, you need to carry out your duty even if it may be fighting/dying in a senselsess war. There will be times where we need to fight, where war is called for, and I have no problem with that. We also need soldiers in times of peace, to serve and protect and maintain our national defenses.

All I am saying is I am tired of the Jane Fondaness of the pacifists and hippies.

Ron Paul need to go back to what he does best: espousing conspiracy theories and duping young voters. What the Fuck does he know about turning off the kill switch? TO put it another way; if you want Veterans, like myself, to have a positive outlet for our PTSD then don't get in our way. If dudes were not popping off rounds at a range they might be double-tapping a few fools.
